Using the Remote Start Function
Using Valet/Service Mode
Service mode is used when servicing the vehicle to prevent the system from unexpectedly
starting the engine while being serviced. While in service mode, the system’s keyless entry
functions will operate normally, but the security system will not arm and the remote start function
is temporarily disabled. The system will honk the horn 2 times if an attempt is made to
activate the remote start system.
To Engage Valet/Service Mode; turn the ignition key to the ON or RUN position and press and
hold the
button for 2 seconds on the remote control transmitter.
To Exit Valet/Service Mode (Return the system to its normal operating mode); turn the
ignition key to the ON or RUN position and press and hold the
button for 2 seconds on the
remote control transmitter.
Important Note: When taking your vehicle to the dealer for service, it is recommended that you
inform the service personnel that your vehicle is equipped with a remote control start system.
TRIP ID
The trip ID feature will let you know what entry point
caused the security system to trigger while you were
away from your vehicle. After disarming the system,
enter the vehicle and press the override/programming
button (located on the driver’s side, secured to the
remote start wire harness) before turning on the
ignition key. The horn will honk a number of times
to indicate which entry point, in the chart to the right,
triggered the alarm.
